Pros

Good PTO policy which you will need in order to maintain sanity

Cons

Everything sucks about Vanguard. Any 5 star review is written by HR. The rest of them tell the truth. If you want to work for the Wal-Mart of mutual fund companies, come here and suffer. Just like every walmart worker is disgruntled and underpaid, the same is true here at Vanguard

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
